 We know that Australia is supplying military equipment to Israel. But did you know that Australia also helps make the armour for armoured vehicles currently operating in Gaza and the occupied West Bank? BizAloy is an Australian company that makes a specific type of metal designed to be used as armour for tanks and military transport. In 2017, BizAloy announced that it would provide Israeli arms manufacturer Rafael with steel to use as armour for Israeli military vehicles. Rafael brags that this armour has been combat proven. As journalists like Anthony Lowenstein points out, this is code for tested on the population of Gaza. We are supplying armour for the very tanks used to commit genocide and crimes against humanity in Palestine. BizAloy also provides steel to Plasan, an Israeli company that makes armoured cars for army and militia use. These cars have been bought by the State of Israel to conduct raids in the occupied West Bank and sold to civilian militias for illegal Israeli settlements. Let me say that again. Extremist armed settler groups have been helped to take the land and homes of Palestinians with military equipment made in part in Australia. The Albanese government chooses to continue to supply military equipment to Israel while ignoring these human rights abuses and the ongoing appalling war in Gaza. And they are silent about it. There's a reason they're silent. They're prioritising narrow political gains over broader humanity and they know that millions and millions of Australians demand better.
